Sirian and Dailin sat exhaustedly on a street bench. After the operation at Watergate Fortress, they stumbled back into the city and just sat down there. Dailin sat with his arms crossed, head bowed, whether he was asleep or pondering the inspiration brought by those golden partners, Sirian didn't know. Sirian, on the other hand, closed his eyes in meditation, sensing the changes in the soul marrow concentration within his body. With Daren's death,…-

The bodies wrapped in mycelia, like a symbol, ran through Sirian's investigation into the Evil Claws. Initially, Sirian thought these were products of the Evil Claws' desecration rituals, vessels for storing spores. By now, their repeated appearance, widespread along the river channels, had made Sirian realize that their true purpose was far from as simple as he had imagined. Not to mention, Sirian had previously visited the Water Gate System to check…

Dailin stood on the metal grating submerged in water. The river water continued to pour into the observation area, and in the blink of an eye, the water level had reached his upper thighs. The Source Energy inside him remained at its peak, weaving layers of dense defense across his body surface. Not far away, Anya stayed high up, clutching the last Blazing Sword. Since Sirian plunged into the river bottom holding Daren's head, they couldn't see anything under…

The night Sirian stumbled into a dark alley, he was shot by a Rank Three formidable enemy. Tonight, facing Daren's fatal shot, Sirian was almost certain that the person he encountered was Daren. Then everything made sense. All this time, Daren had been deeply hidden within the Water Gate System, masquerading as a reclusive research fanatic to lull everyone into a false sense of security, but when necessary, he would act in the dead of night, serving Evil…

After a series of deadly exchanges, both sides tacitly ceased their attacks, maintaining a safe distance and sizing each other up. Sirian gripped his boiling sword tightly, Source Energy further strengthening the blade, causing it to erupt in fierce flames. Dailin rubbed his aching chest. The storm of bullets just now had nearly shattered his defenses, leaving his body riddled with holes. Anya lurked in the shadows, like a cold viper, waiting for an opportunity…

The heavy oak door blocked out the outside clamor, but it couldn't stop the pervasive smell of gunpowder and the iron-like tension in the air. Dekar sat in his office like a silent statue, as always, but this time, the large desk in front of him had been cleared, replaced by a map that almost covered the entire surface. The map meticulously depicted the full view of Heer City, dotted with different colored thumbtacks and dense threads, marking the strongholds and activity areas of…

"Daren Zaka, from the Mech-Corpse Destiny, Rank Two, has been working for the Water Gate System ever since he joined over a decade ago." As the lift descended, Dailin recounted the target's information. "His parents passed away several years ago. He never married and doesn't have any close friends. He's a guy so isolated he has virtually no social connections." Anya commented, "He sounds like an extreme version of Elton." "He is nothing…

High-level beheading… complete annihilation… After hearing Dekar’s words, everyone fell into a deathly silence. After a full half-minute, rustling whispers began, even escalating into a fierce quarrel. “Beheading operation? When did it start?!” “So… so, tonight, we are going to uproot the Evil Claws?” “This is too sudden, too fast.” The intelligence Dekar threw out was too terrifying, like a depth charge, shattering the calm surface and raising waves several…

The gathering dispersed. The night, like the subtle intoxication of wine, slowly spread and filled the sky. Amidst laughter and cheerful chatter, everyone pushed open the doors of the Ink House and said their goodbyes. “That’s all for today. See you next time, everyone!” Elton waved goodbye to everyone; after such high-intensity socializing, it was unclear if his heart was still closed off, but at least his behavior was no longer timid or hesitant. “Yes!…

In the afternoon, the setting sun, like a dying ember, painted the sky in an orange-red hue, which was then sliced into narrow streaks by the buildings. Dailin abandoned all pretense of personal image, sprawled carelessly on the cold steps, his clothes damp, a chill seeping into his spine. “An imagined… life?” Sirian savored his recent words. His tense body relaxed, and he imitated Dailin, slowly lying flat. The sharp edges of the steps pressed against his back like a…
